Via Dolorosa

Jesus's traditional route to Calvary, fourteen stations through the Old City.

The route traditionally taken by Jesus from the Praetorium to Calvary, running through the Muslim Quarter to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. Fourteen Stations of the Cross marked along the way. Most of the route is lined with souks, so expect to dodge handcarts and donkeys. On Friday afternoons a Franciscan procession walks the stations starting at 3pm.
